PHYSICAL EDUCATION PRACTICAL CLASS - XII Practical-1: Fitness tests administration for all items. Motor fitness is a term that describes an athlete’s ability to perform effectively during sports or any other physical activity. Motor Fitness Test – 1. 50 M Standing Start 2. 600 M Run/Walk 3. Sit & Reach Test 4. Partial Curl Up 5. Push Ups (Boys) 6. Modified Push Ups (Girls) 7. Standing Broad Jump 8. Shuttle Run (4x10 M) 1. 50 M Standing Start i. Purpose: The aim of this test is to determine acceleration and speed. ii. Equipment required: measuring tape or marked track, stopwatch, cone markers, flat and clear surface of at least 70 meters. iii. Procedure: The test involves running a single maximum sprint over 50 meters, with the time recorded. A thorough warm-up should be given, including some practice starts and accelerations. Start from a stationary standing position (hands cannot touch the ground), with one foot in front of the other. The front foot must be behind the starting line. Once the subject is ready and motionless, the starter gives the instructions "set" then "go." The tester should provide hints for maximizing speed (such as keeping low driving hard with the arms and legs) and the participant should be encouraged to not slow down before crossing the finish line. iv. Results: Two trials are allowed, and the best time is recorded to the nearest 2 decimal places. The timing starts from the first movement (if using a stopwatch) or when the timing system is triggered, and finishes when the chest crosses the finish line and/or the finishing timing gate is triggered. v. Target population: soccer other sports in which speed over a similar distance is important. vi. Reliability: Reliability is greatly improved if timing gates are used. Also weather conditions and the running surface can affect the results, and these conditions should be recorded with the results- If possible, set up the track with a crosswind to minimize the effect of wind. 2. 600 M Run/Walk i. Purpose: The aim of this test is to determine acceleration and speed. ii. Equipment required: oval or 400m running track, stopwatch recording sheets. iii. Procedure:, The aim of this test is to complete the 600 meter course in quickest possible time. To start, all participants line up behind the starting line. On the command 'go,' the clock will start, and they will begin running at their own pace. Cheering or calling out the elapsed time is also permitted to encourage the participants to achieve their best time. iv. Scoring: The total time taken to run 600m is recorded. v. Reliability: The reliability of this test would depend on practice and pacing strategies and motivation level. There should be good reliability if these issues are addressed. vi. Advantages: Large groups can be tested at once, and it is a very cheap and simple test to perform- vii. Disadvantages: Practice and pacing are required to maximize the subject performance, and also the test results can be affected greatly by motivation. 3. Sit and Reach Test The sit and reach test was first propounded by Wells and Dillon in 1952. This test is widely used as normal test of flexibility. i. Purpose: The sit and reach test is a significant test to measure the flexibility of hip region including the lower back and hamstring muscles. Generally it is noted that owing to the lack of flexibility in this region there is greater risk of injury. It is also entangled with lumbar lordosis and lower back pain. ii. Equipment’s Required: iii. Sit and reach box or a makeshift ruler and a box may be used in which zero mark can be adjusted for each individual according to their sitting reach level because there is a variation of lengths of individual’s arms and legs. iv. Procedure: First of all, shoes and socks should be removed. Then sit down on the floor with legs stretched out straight ahead. The soles of the feet should be kept flat against the box. Both the knees should be locked and pressed flat to the floor. An assistant may hold the knees down. Palms should be facing downwards. Hands should be on the top of each other or side by side. The individual, whose flexibility is to be measured, tries to extend his both hands forward along the measuring line on the box as far as he can extend. His finger tips of both hands should remain equal and at the same level. He should not jerk or bounce to reach at maximum distance. He should hold the full reach position for two seconds and the score should be recorded. Generally in such test warm up is not allowed, however, the results can be attained after suitable warm up. In case of sliding ruler or makeshift ruler the zero mark should be at the fingertips. If it is not available or simple marking is there the zero mark should be 9 inches before the feet. v. Scoring: The score is recorded to the nearest centimetre or half inch as the distance reached by the fingertips of both hands. vi. Advantages: A It is a simple test to know the flexibility. B It is an easy test to perform. vii. Disadvantages: This test is good for flexibility of joints of lower back and hamstrings and not related to the flexibility of other joints of the body. 4. Partial Curl Up i. Purpose: The partial curl-up test measures abdominal strength and endurance, important in back support and core stability. ii. Equipment required: A flat, clean, cushioned surface, stopwatch, recording sheets, pen, and a metronome (or audio tape, drums). iii. Procedure: In this test the partner sits behind, the subject and cups the subject’s head in their hands. The starting position is with the arms fully extended with fingers resting on the legs and pointing toward the knees. The subject curls-up slowly; sliding the fingers along the legs until the fingertips touch the knees, then back down again, until the head touches the partner’s hands. One complete curl-up is completed every three seconds, and are continued until exhaustion (e.g. the subject cannot maintain the rhythm or has reached the target number for the test). iv. Scoring: The completion of one complete curl-up counts as one. Make sure that the subject does not "bounce" off the floor – only correctly performed curl ups should be counted. The timer begins the test by calling out the signal “ready? Go!”. The stop watch is started at the same time, and at the conclusion of one minute the timer calls out "Stop” at which counting and the subject stop. v. Advantages: This test is simple and quick to perform requiring minimal equipment, and large groups may be tested at once. vi. Disadvantages: The partial curl-up test in which the feet are not supported measure of abdominal strength and endurance. 5. Push Ups (Boys) i. Purpose: The aim of this test is to determine upper body strength and endurance. ii. Equipment required: Floor mat, PACER d with push up track. iii. Procedure: start in the push-up position - with the hands and toes touching the floor, the body and legs are in a straight line, feet slightly apart, and the arms at shoulder width apart, extended and at a right angle to the body. Keeping the back and knees straight, the subject lowers the body until there is a 9O-degree angle at the elbows, with the upper arms parallel to the floor. A partner holds their holds at the point of the 90- degree angle so that the subject being tested goes down only until their shoulder touches the partner's hand, then back up. The push-ups are done in time to a metronome or similar device with one complete push-up every three seconds (1.5 seconds down and 1.5 seconds up,20 complete push-ups per minute).The subject continues until they can do no more in rhythm (has not done the last three in rhythm) or has reached the target number of push-ups. iv. Scoring: Record the number of correctly completed push-ups that were performed in time to the rhythm. v. Advantages: This test is easy and quick to perform.  6. Modified Push Ups (Girls) Purpose: ii. Equipment required: Floor mat, PACER d with push up track. Procedure: iv. Benefits of Modified Push-Ups: There are many benefits to the Modified Push-Ups and just as many reasons you should incorporate them into your workouts. Push-ups are one of the best exercises anyone can do, but women especially! All in one exercise, you get the benefit of toning your arms, chest, shoulders, and core. Push ups tone up basically your entire upper body all the while helping you to torch calories and reveal toned and tight arms, shoulders, and abs. Here are just a few benefits of modified push-ups: 7. Standing Broad Jump (Long Jump) i. Purpose: To measure the explosive power of the legs ii. Equipment required: The measure to measure distance jumped, non-slip floor for take-off, and soft landing area preferred. Commercial Long jump Landing Mats are also available. iii. Procedure: A take-off line is marked on the ground. Subjects stands just behind the line with the feet several inches apart. The subject swings the arms and bends the knees to take a jump. Landing should be on both legs. Three trails are given to the subject. The distance is measured from the take-off line to the heel or other part of body that touches the ground nearest to the take-off line. Best of three will be counted. iv. Scoring: The measurement is taken from take-off line to the nearest point of contact on the landing (back of the heels). Record the longest distance jumped, the best of three attempts. v. Advantages: This test is simple and quick to perform, requiring minimal equipment. vi. Disadvantages: There is some skill component in this test. 8. Shuttle Run (4×10 M) i. Purpose: This is a test of speed, body control and the ability to change direction (agility). ii. Equipment required: Two wooden blocks for each runner (each block should measure 10 x 5 x 5 cm), marker cones or marking tape, measurement tape, stopwatch, flat non-slip surface, with two lines 10 meters apart. iii. Procedure: Mark two lines 10 meters apart using marking tape or cones. The two blocks are placed on the line opposite the line they are going to start at. On the signal "ready" , the participant places their front foot behind the starting line. On the signal, "got" the participant sprints to the opposite line, picks up a block of wood, runs back and places it on or beyond the starting line. Then turning without a rest, they run back to retrieve the second block and carry it back across the finish line- Two trials are performed. iv. Scoring: Record the time to complete the test in seconds to the nearest one decimal place. The score is the better of the two times recorded. A trial is void if a block is dropped or thrown. , v. Advantages: This test can be conducted on large groups relatively quickly with minimal equipment required.  Practical-2: Procedure for Asanas, Benefits & Contraindication for any two Asanas for each lifestyle disease.

Practical-3: Procedure for administering Senior Citizen Fitness Test for 5 elderly family members. Rikli and Jones: Senior Citizen Fitness Test Even in old age, everybody wants to be able to continue to do what he wants, without pain, for as long as possible. It requires proper fitness during such age. In the beginning there were not enough tests to assess the functional fitness. This test is also known as Fullerton Functional Test of senior citizens. So, owing to that Rikli and Jones developed the senior citizen fitness test in 2001. This test is beneficial for various senior citizens. It helps the early identification of at-risk participants. Along this, it is significant to plan safe and effective physical exercise programmes for senior citizens because individual’s health and fitness level can be known better with the help of this test. The Senior Citizen Fitness Test comprises the following tests. 1. Chair Stand Test for Lower Body Strength Purpose: The main purpose of this test is to measure the lower body strength, particularly leg strength which is usually required for various tasks such as- climbing stairs, getting in and out of vehicles, bath tub or chair. Equipments Required: A chair with a straight back and a seat of at least cm and a stop watch. Procedure: Keep the chair against the wall. The participant sits in the middle of the seat. His feet should be shoulder width apart and flat on the floor. The arms should be crossed at the wrists and held close to the chest. From the sitting position, the participant stands up completely up then completely back down at the start of the signal. This is repeated for 30 sec. Count the total no. of complete chair stands. In case the participants have completed a full stand from the sitting position when the time is finished the final stand is counted in the total. Scoring: The score is the total no. of completed chair stands during 30 seconds. The following table shows the recommended range of this test based on different age groups. 2. Arm Curl Test for Upper Body Strength The Arm Curl Test is a test for upper body strength. It is a part of the senior citizen fitness test. It is designed to test the functional fitness of senior citizens. Purpose: The main purpose of this test is to assess the upper body strength and endurance which is required for performing house-hold and other activities involving lifting and carrying things. Equipments required: 5 pound weight for women and 8 pound weight for men, a chair without arms and stop watch. Procedures: To do the maximum no. of arm curls that can be completed in 30 seconds is its aim. Arm curl is performed with the dominant arm side. The participant sits on the chair, hold the weight in the hand using a suitcase grip. It means the palms should be facing towards the body. The arm should be in vertical downward position. The upper arm should not move but lower arm should move freely. Curl the arm of through a complete range of motion gradually turning the palm up. When the arm is lowered through the complete range of motion, gradually return to the starting position. The arm should be completely bent and then completely strengthened at the elbow. This complete action should be repeated by the participant as many a times as possible within 30 seconds. Scoring: The score is the total no. of arm curl performed in 30 seconds duration. The following table shows the recommended ranges for the test based on the different age groups. 3. Chair Sit and Reach Test for Lower Body Flexibility Purpose: To assess the lower body flexibility which is important for good postures for normal gait patterns and for various mobility tasks such as- getting in and out of bath tub or car. Equipments Required: Ruler, a chair with straight back approximately 44 cm high. Procedure: The participant sits on the edge of the chair (kept against a wall for safety purpose). One foot remain flat on the floor while the other leg should be extended remain forward with the knee straight. Heel should be on the floor and ankle should be bent at 900. Place one hand on the top of the other with tips of the middle fingers even. Instruct the participant to inhale and then as he exhales, reach forward towards the toes by bending at the hip. His back should be straight and head up. Avoid any jerk or bounce and never stretch too much. Keep the knee straight and hold the reach for 2 seconds. The distance is measured between the tip of the finger tips and the toes. If the finger tips touch the toes then the score is zero. If they do not touch, measure the distance between the fingers and the toes (negative score). If they overlap, measure by how much (positive score). Scoring: The score is noted down to the nearest 1/2 inches or 1 cm as the distance reached either a negative or positive score. The following table shows the recommended norms in inches for the test based on the different age groups. 4. Back Scratch Test for Upper Body Flexibility Purpose: To assess the upper body(shoulder) flexibility, which is important in performing various jobs such as combing one’s hair, putting on overhead garments and reaching for a seat belt etc. Equipment Required: A ruler Procedure: This test is performed in standing position.
